BudsMurdockstarted grow question 4 years ago
2 x 3.5 x 6 cabinet, would 2 600 watt Bestva Elite lights be too much?

No it would not be too much. Keep in mind that you need between 30 to 40 watts of led light (real power draw that is); and for your grow space (7 sq ft) that means a total light power between 210 and 280 watts, the actual power draw of each of those is 132 watts, so 2 of those units would put you at 264 watts or 37.7 watts per sq ft.

Hi @BudsMurdock the coverage area of the 2000W bestva elite (real 401Watts) is 5.0x5.4x24. has an impressive emol emission. I don't think it's too much, it seems to be a great light. good luck mate 👍

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent?
Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

Lamp to Plant distance - Outdoor.If growing outside, what is the best way to calculate lamp (star) to plant distance for the journal each week based on time of year and rotation of our lovely planet? I am being facetious, of course! It's just a fun question for you all. Hope everyone out there good!

Setting up air cooled refactor.I've got a new air cooled light refractor, a tube like one. I've set it up such as the pic, I'm thinking of putting the extractor where it shows on the pic with the air flow going the way of the arrow, would this be OK? I can't find anything online about setting this one up.
